My father in law bought my little guy a rod for our Alaska trip......anyone have any thoughts on what weight it may be if it says line sizes 3/16-3/8....I know on a spinning rod these kind of numbers refer to lure weight......but it is a cheapo rod that is as stiff as a pipe......I tried 5 weight line...casting was laughable then 8 weight which is better....but the poor kid.....a rod this stiff isn't easy on the arm/wrist. It is hard enough for him to limit wrist motion with a 4 weight. I'm thinking of sending it back but The thing cost 20.00 dollars and shipping it out here from California and me sending it back will cost more than it is worth. I don't know what to do...... |
